Uh yes, it's time for another episode of Unbox Tragedy with pound stretchers 70 Fury Lights Gold light and I do like gold light. To me the tungsten glow is quite nice because I am old. The younger generation probably like Coldplay Christmas lights but I don't but look how glary this is. This is a very glittery uh place to film.

not to worry. So it starts looking promising with this big huge silver panel. That's nice and you pull it out and you realize that the big huge solar panel has very little actual silicon on it. It's like absolutely microscopic.

What would these be rated about 50 milliamps at Uh for charging the nickel metal hydraulic cell. Talk about nickel metal hydrated cell. This one is apparently rated 600 milliampere, which is quite good. and technically speaking, on a good day, it may even put a decent charge into it.

However, here are the: LEDs I'm not sure this is going to show. let's turn it on and look at this amazing Golden Globe Which is lemon yellow. Literally, it looks like a freaking lemon. It is a harsh cold phosphor yellow that is not a Golden Globe.

But nonetheless, let us open this up and explore inside and see if it contains the usual little four pin chip. I think I've been duped by these as well in the past. Maybe I should actually just pop The Box Open in the shop, turn them on and take a look at the color before buying them because I can't think of an application that you'd want to use. Limoncello yellow.

It might suit some venues. some people may be saying I love yellow and those lights are going to be my go-to lights. Good for you, You choose the color you like. Here is the circuit board.

It's held in place by a couple of screws. one just rammed in at a funny angle part of the way to the switch and the other one. Let's Zoom down this a little bit zoom and the other one here. Can you tell? I was slightly disappointed and I got these? Yes! I was uh, here it is.

It's the classic four pin chip. the little inductor. Um, hold on, let me grab my magnifying glass one moment. Let's Zoom down onto that little inductor which is blue, gray, black, blue, gray, black.

which means uh, six, eight and a zero as a multiplier. So that's six to each micro henries, which is actually going to be quite high output it is driving. These are modest current, so how much charge they're going to get because the amount of charge it gets during the day is going to determine how much it will actually how long it will run these legs. But you know, if you choose to get these, you get your string of sizzling yellow.

LEDs You get a lackluster solar panel. it's also that type. If there's any thermal differential of expansion between the silicon and the uh, the resin and the plastic, it can actually cause it to flag some crack. The Silicon have come across that plaster.

at the very least, it will delaminate over time. but this little circuit board here is actually quite nice and chunky. It's the basically speaking what this does. it does the charging of the cell.

very simple. a diode, basically the monitor of cell voltage, the monitoring of the power coming from the solar panel. I've shown the circuit so many times the past and it when it detects The Dusk with the voltage from the solar panel dropping, it starts pulsing this inductor and that steps of all the Java adds on to the nickel metal hydride sound that drives the LEDs until it reaches a point at the cell. voltage drops to about one volt and then it'll cut them off because it knows the cell is completely discharged and the switch.

the switch looks to be as I was going to say. the switch looks to be. well, that's hard. Slightly different configuration from normalized.

The black is going via the So, the black is going through the sort of the little charge socket here, but the Reds look common and they're going via the switch. Does that mean that even the Switched Off it's putting a charge into the cell? I Think that does mean it's putting a charge into the cell even if it's Switched Off If it does, that is quite a nice feature. Maybe I should have checked that there is no sunshine. Not ideal for check it right now.

Actually, you know what? I will check it right now one moment, please. and testing. Uh, switch in one position current flew into solar panel switch, another position current still flowing into solar panels so it does actually keep charging. Uh, even when this is turned off.

So that's quite useful to know. Uh, But there we have it. The slightly lackluster, but may appeal to some uh, solar lights from Poundstretcher? Not something? I choose myself I can't really think of Britain Well, I can't really appreciate this particular color. Golden white as promised in the packaging would have been much nicer, but to some people that may be the color that they're absolutely looking for.

And those people, this will be a win. Uh, you can also update this: You can chop this string of lights off. You can add them to something beefier if you wish. If you wish your lights to run longer at night time,.
